i introduced this bill as senator hillary clinton moved on to the state department four years ago. i thought it was a good idea and it was recommended to me by the family of a wounded veteran, eric edmund son. his mom and dad came to me and hisster as well and talked about the caregivers act. traumatic brain injuries as we know, one of the single casualties of the wars in iraq and afghanistan. in 2005 eric edmundson was a 26-year-old army sergeant, he survived a roadside blast but then went into cardiac arrest while awaiting transport to a military hospital. his brain was deprived of oxygen for almost 30 minutes. doctors told husband parents that eric would spend the rest of his life in a vegetative state and they should choose a nursing home for their son. but eric's mom and dad said no, we're not giving up on this young man. though fought for eric to be transferred to the rehabilitation institute of chicago. one of the best. in fact the same hospital that my colleague senator mark kirk has been turning to time and again for rehabilitation from his stroke. i visited eric at that h

on taxes it's as bill clinton said. it's simple math. spending is at 24% of gdp. taxes are at about 15% of gdp right now. even the most conservative member of congress only proposes to bring spending down to say 20% or even 19% of gdp. you still have a 4% to 5% gap. that represents hundreds of billions of dollars that has to be made up. even if you assume growth could get back to 3%, that won't make up the gap. so taxes have to be on the table. there's no way to get around that if you want to actually deal with the fiscal crisis that we have. and what is most heartening to me is to learn today that the president is willing to take this show on the road, to go out into the states and make the case and actually reinforce that mandate he has and make republicans realize that those that want to work with him will be rewarded as people who are trying to solve people, those that want to obstruct will pay a political praice that they will feel at election time. >> his opening act has got to be rick ross. these haters are not going to hold me back. some of the conservativ
